A still image grabbed from MiniDV tape. Best quality possible, all digital PAL from camcorder to right here - but doesn't compare with a proper mega-pixel digital camera. Lindenhof is in Zurich, overlooking the river and town.

Imaging you're standing in the picture above. Turn 90 degrees to the right and this is what you'd see. Linden refers to the tree and hof is house. Apparently the Romans used to hang out hereabouts.

From the top of Mt Pilatus, Lucerne is visible far below. From the town there's a round trip via boat followed by  the steepest cog railway in the world, finally descending by two cable cars.

A mountain path in summer. There are countless paths, all well-maintained and sign-posted. This is quite near St Moritz. That's me sitting down.

The same path further on. The path continues along the side of the Bernina Valley for several more miles.
